Well I finished my three months of being on the cpap machine and the results are supposedly being sent to my surgeon (after 3 phones calls!!). I will be calling again Monday to see if they actually sent them THIS time. I also have to fill out an application at workforce for a very promising job, come home and start my summer semester online and then go to work at 2. Ahhhhhhh!!! Monday is going to be very busy. So as of right now I still DO NOT have a surgery date. Sigh.... It will happen, it will happen, it will happen. That's what I keep telling myself. So those of you who are starting out it will take time for some of you. June will be a year for me. Hopefully my one year of waiting will turn into me actually getting surgery. Hope all of you are well and doing good on your own journey. Keep sharing it helps those of us who haven't actually went through it all yet.

Sorry it's taking so long for you. I started in March and surgery is the 14th. It may of been sooner but I was delayed do to finding out I have mild sleep apnea (6.9 day of study) it took sleep Dr about a month to get machine to me. My surgeon on required me to do a week of at home before I could meet her. I still do my cpap and my ahi has lowered.

I have been on a clap for three years. I am hoping once this is all said and done that I won't need it. It's not very sexy lol I hope that your surgery date is set soon....I see the surgeon on the 15th and I am praying she sets a date!

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.
